“We are of course very pleased that the NZFAA will be participating in the development of Financial Advice New Zealand,” says PAA CEO Rod Severn.

“Over the next few months we have an opportunity to shape a body fit for the future of advice – for all types of advisers. To arrive at the best outcome, we want a well-managed but wide-ranging set of voices at the table,” said IFA CEO Fred Dodds.

The IFA and PAA will receive guidance from Dr Lester Levy, chief executive of the New Zealand Leadership Institute, on how to set up the consultation process and make it as inclusive as possible, after which the consultative process can begin.

“We want to do this once and do it right,” said Severn and Dodds.

“As we progress through the many facets of the new representative body, there will be many opportunities to share views and participate in shaping Financial Advice New Zealand.

“All views are welcome and greatly appreciated.”

That's very good news. Like the PAA and IFA the NZFAA have excellent members who will add great value to Financial Advice New Zealand.
